Money is the root of all evil. For more information, send $10 to me.

What if you can see a few minutes into the future? Would you consider it a good deal?

As I was watching the film, "Next", I was wishing I had the same gift, too. In stead of just second guessing what my intuition is telling me. On the other hand, I thought it's rather a torment if ever. Imagine yourself seeing a few minutes of what's going to happen to you. Frightening.

Yes, you can change your destiny and all (like, you can sure win the lottery, right?) but wouldn't it be like a curse as well? ...Seeing what is about to happen to you. Like you are going to be hit by a bus or something. Geesh. Dunno how to handle that.

The character, Cris Johnson, has that gift since he was 3. Well, twas not anymore such a tough thing for him since he's been dealing with that gift for a long time. But, was kinda thinking how was it like during the first times he had experienced it? And at age 3!

I specifically like the choreography during the getaway scenes inside the casino. Hehe. The securities kept missing him by a nanosecond. Clever! fwahaha.

Love the movie because it's meticulously done. Like we timed everything... how he'd foreseen the future. Twas all less than 2 minutes. Well calculated. hehehe Besides the fact that I love Nicolas Cage. (Only he's received so many disparages for all the films he recently did.) Some graphics were a bit obvious, though, but it's pardonable.

However, many film critics gave it a C minus. Awww...

Basically, I just like the film because of my interest in learning about how to make use of my intuition effectively. And am still finding more information.

Also seen "Stranger Than Fiction". Quite a unique story about an IRS agent -- Harold Crick. Twas actually an adaptation of a Spanish novel, Niebla written by Miguel Unamuno.

Harold was a time freak.. and then one day he suddenly heard a voice narrating his life. Freaky! The author was a woman and she also spoke of his imminent death. Which is even more freaky!!! Grrr!!!

It's entertaining (for me).

...Enough of movies now.

Bad news for Bedistas. Letran defeated the Red Lions yesterday by one point! *sobs real hard* I know...I know.. OA! Hehehe.

Wasn't able to watch the game so I had to check with Inbound Pass. According to their report, Ekwe was fouled out in the third quarter, which made it easy for the Knights to attack. But, the win actually happened a few seconds before the end of the fourth quarter when Guevarra made a two points shot with only 3.2 seconds left. Frustrating! GRRRrrr!!!

Well, the game was great! It's a game to watch, actually. Will check if there's a video of this game on YouTube.

Letran did a very good job and, in fact, we actually thought they will really give the Red Lions a hard time. True enough.

The Quarter Scores: 12-23; 27-34; 50-44; 70-69

Next San Beda game will be on ... No announcement yet from Inbound Pass. hehehe


It made me smile that someone took time to learn about my hometown -- Heard and McDonald Islands. hihihi Cute! I appreciate it, Victor. Will share with you his message...

~~~~~~~~~~~

i've been reading up on those islands, and it seems at least you have penguins and seals to keep you company :D the terrain is said to be harsh though. so i'm guessing you were hurt or something so you just wanted to be a hermit basically and be far from human contact altogether? ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd say, nice hypothesis! hihihi


Anyway, want to show you my work of art. Just please don't say any more comment. If you don't/can't appreciate them, stay quiet. Keep your fingers away from your keyboards and just browse down if you can't stand the sight, ok?!

My doodlings... hehehe


Can't find my sketch pad. Awww... So, this is all I can show you for now. *frowns*

Finally, a response from Marc.


~~~~~~~~~~~
i don't believe that you should stop caring for people too much, it's a trait everyone should have. just imagine if everyone is like you, we'll live in a more caring world. but love and compassion starts with oneself and you should never allow anyone to take advantage of you.

i sense you have a big heart and tend to give much of yourself to others. the detriment of that is expecting others to reciprocate the love and affection you give which always doesn't happen and you feel used and abused. this is exactly what i meant when i told you in my earlier message that life is not fair. giving too much of yourself is free will and is its own reward. expecting others always to give in return will surely disappoint you.

Thank you Marc. *smiles*

...Have a wonderful day y'all! *waves*

  3. As someone who can't draw blood, I think your sketches are pretty darned excellent.

    That is, I admit, mainly because I am in awe of anyone who can actually draw anything more detailed than stick men (my strength, by the way!).

    Keep going!
